It's school again, the fifth year of the Harry Potter story has begun, and Lockhart is full of confidence in this year, he knows that the last massacre of Azkaban, coupled with the continuous pursuit of the members of the Order of the Phoenix, there are no generals available on the Death Eaters' side at this time, and they know what Voldemort wants, maybe they can do something when Voldemort goes to get the prophecy orb.

The Ministry of Magic acknowledged Voldemort's return and was busy dealing with the Death Eaters, but to Loha's surprise, it seemed that Dumbledore could not be reassured, and Fudge sent Umbridge as an inspector, citing Voldemort's return and the need for immediate reform to protect the safety of the students.

Lockhart sneered in his heart, what a stupid old man, it was too late to rely on Dumbledore at this time, and he couldn't even believe him.

After attending the usual sorting ceremony, Snape arrived.

"Gildero, the headmaster called you, and I want to see what you can come up with. Snape's voice was as calm and gloomy as ever.

"I didn't even say hello to Pandora. Lockhart grumbled and followed Snape to the headmaster's office.

"Gildero, you've done a lot of things this summer," Dumbledore's cheerful voice came from behind the desk, "Would you like to come—"

"Don't dare to drink your tea, and don't want to eat candy, thank you. Lockhart choked Dumbledore's words back.

"Gildero, you said at the meeting that you could help me destroy the Horcrux? Dumbledore looked at Lockhart across the table.

"I heard about it when I was adventurous. The venom of the millennium basilisk can hurt the soul, maybe you can try. Lockhart said confidently.

"Basilisk venom?" Dumbledore gave a strange look, "Where to find the basilisk's venom?"

"Isn't there one at Hogwarts, although it's a corpse, but the fangs are still there. ”

Dumbledore looked embarrassed, "Gildero, you should remember how I killed that basilisk. ”

"An amazing flame roaring, I was impressed. Lockhart happily replied, he felt that he should be able to block that spell now, that was a great improvement, wasn't it, he could now block the spell of the strongest wizard!

"Uh--then you should be able to understand--an old man like me always doesn't control the strength of his spells-" Dumbledore explained crampedly, "I burned that snake to a small skeleton, and it shattered when I touched it, and the venom didn't even think about it. ”

"What!" Lockhart was surprised, without fangs, he only knew that fangs and Gryffindor's sword could destroy Horcruxes, and Gryffindor's sword could destroy Horcruxes because it was contaminated with venom.

He immediately had a bad idea, he stood up and asked, "How did you destroy that Tom's diary?"

"You mean this, how did you guess it was a Horcrux?" Dumbledore pulled out a wrapped journal from his desk and opened it for Lockhart to see, "You were knocked unconscious, so I took Ginny and took the journal, but I couldn't find a way to destroy it." ”

It's over, it's over, it's all over, Lockhart felt a wave of dizziness in his head, and at this time he only had one thought - it's over.

The biggest change in the plot is actually here, he only knows this one way to destroy the Horcruxes, doesn't that mean that he has no way to destroy the Horcruxes?

Instead, Dumbledore spoke up to comfort him, "Maybe we can raise a basilisk and try." ”

"Impossible, how can a thousand-year-old basilisk and a baby basilisk be the same!"

"Haha, Gildero, that's your good idea? Snape watched for a long time, and the end result was this?

Dumbledore reluctantly put the notebook back in his hand: "Don't despair, in fact, I already have a way to destroy Horcruxes, and the problem now is that my power can't destroy one after destroying another." ”

Lockhart was feeling like he was in a bottomless abyss, and Dumbledore's words pulled him back, and then it occurred to him that he could destroy Horcruxes with demonic flames.

"How?"

"This ring," Dumbledore gestured, "I guess the way to destroy it is to inject magic into it, and then introduce the dark magic power in it, and then use my magic to cancel it out, and after canceling it, this Horcrux will be ineffective." ”

"And you're not far from death then, Dumbledore. Snape said gloomily.

Dumbledore nodded: "The design of this Horcrux is very exquisite, it can only be like this, this is probably the pinnacle of Voldemort, in fact, Voldemort's method of protecting it has also made me suffer a lot of small losses, I believe that other Horcruxes cannot all be so difficult to deal with." ”

"What about the diary? Lockhart looked at Dumbledore with hope.

"It's this diary, I'm afraid it's Voldemort's first Horcrux, so the protection on it is simple, it's a strong defense and recovery ability. ”

"I think that as long as the strength of the attack exceeds its defense and recovery ability, it can be destroyed, but I don't have this ability alone, I have already tried it, and if it is strong enough, it should be able to destroy it. ”

"Then let the entire Order of the Phoenix try it out. Lockhart said.

"As far as I know, it's a dangerous and powerful form of black magic. "If no one stops it, it can even burn the whole world." ”

"Good magic is what destroys Horcruxes," Dumbledore stretched out his hand and flicked the journal, "but it's not a long-term solution, this journal was made by Voldemort when he was 16 years old, and other Horcruxes made by Voldemort after becoming famous obviously couldn't be so easily destroyed." That's exactly what I'm worried about, we have to find a way to destroy all the Horcruxes, I don't even know how many Horcruxes Voldemort has. ”

"As long as there is one more, you can't kill the Dark Lord. ”

"Indeed, so we'll have to figure out how many Horcruxes Voldemort has. Dumbledore nodded.

"When are you going to gather a few men and destroy the journal?" Lockhart asked.

"Wait until the first time the students go to Hogsmeade after school starts. ”

"Okay, then I'll go back and think about other ways to destroy Horcruxes, have you read all the books in the library? ”

"I've read them all, some very dangerous books in the ** district were managed by the Ministry of Magic when I was not the headmaster, maybe I can go to the Ministry of Magic to read them. ”

"I'll take my time. Lohar nodded.

Lockhart walked out of the principal's office with Snape.

"Severus, aren't you a master of potions, don't you have any ideas to destroy Horcruxes. ”

"The Dark Lord took potions into account when he made Horcruxes. Snape glanced at Lockhart, "He'd asked his Potions professor about this, so Horcruxes simply can't be destroyed with potions." ”

"Damn. ”

"If Slughorn had known that the Dark Lord had asked him to make Horcruxes, he would have kept a hand, but unfortunately he didn't know at the time. Snape gave a rare look of regret, sighed, and turned to leave.
